Fun reading: Velikovsky's Oedipus and Akhnaton. IV theorized that Akhnaton was the inspiration for the Oedipus story, and Smenkhare and Tutankhamen were his successors, who vied for the throne.
Probably just classic overheated Velikovsky, but still a fascinating viewpoint.
O and A, or rather the work on it (which was a paper on some ideas of Freud's), led V to everything else, but didn't appear until 1960. Very cool book. Bob Brier, the "Tut was murdered" guy, who also has a ghoulish interest in mummification, actually mentions O and A in his "Murder..." book, claiming that it should be taken with a grain of salt. Since the murder of Tut was just sensationalism, regardless of the data that was available, Brier had some nerve. My cute remark was the Brier's book should be taken with a grain of natron. ;')
